Bewitched premieres 1964


The first episode of Bewitched aired September 17, 1964.  The series which lasted 8 seasons starred Elizabeth Montgomery, Agnes Moorehead and Dick York as the original Darrin.  After health problems forced him to quit, Dick Sargent took over the role. 

The opening episode involved Samantha telling Darrin on their wedding night she was a witch.  It spawned a short-lived series Tabitha, and was remade into a movie, Bewitched in 2005.

Nearly all of the principal characters were veterans of the Twilight Zone.
